We use third-party service providers to process and store your information in the United States, the EU, and other countries.

Data security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered, or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

Data retention

How long will you use my personal data for?

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or other requirements.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see your legal rights below for further information.

In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

What is the GDPR?

The General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) is a European privacy regulation which replaced EU Data Protection Directive (“Directive 95/46/EC”).

The GDPR aims to strengthen the security and protection of personal data in the EU and harmonize EU data protection law.

The GDPR applies to all organizations operating in the EU and processing “personal identifiable data” of EU residents. Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

If a company collects, transmits, hosts or analyzes personal data of EU citizens, it is must comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which is enforceable since May 25, 2018. Our Terms Of Use has been updated to provide customers with contractual commitments regarding our compliance with applicable EU data protection law and to implement additional contractual provisions required by the GDPR. Our contractual commitments guarantee that customers: can request from data subjects to obtain, correct, unsubscribe or delete personal data; will be made aware of and report personal data breaches to relevant supervisory authorities and data subjects in accordance with GDPR timeframes.
